I am bumping this to ask this question instead of creating a new thread.

Does Draego-Man fit in MOTU?

The figure is a masterpiece and one that I can't stop looking at. The bio wasn't the greatest but it does put him in two different eras and to me, he fits in the overall MOTU world nicely. I look at the figure and I want to see his story expanded on, I want to see him in animation, I want to see him in Mini Comics.

When it comes to new characters in the mythos this is how I like it to be done and this one is the best new character in years

I picked up a Draego man the other week and agree he is a great looking character and I am happy for new figures to enter the universe - its a shame the other new figures dont look so great so far though

If new characters are to be introduced into MOTU, Draego Man is the model to follow. The Horsemen's contribution to the 30th line started with the Fab Four looking at the line and seeing if something was missing somewhere. When they saw there were no flying baddies and no dragons yet in the line, they decided to create a figure and a character to fill that void, and linked that new character to an existing part of the mythos. This is why Draego seems to fit into the line so well, whereas Spector seems more forced somehow (the line wasn't missing a time traveler with Gwildor already established, so Spector was something of a redundancy to begin with).

He has a very interesting backstory, even if it was kind of a Eternian historical narrative it'd be pretty cool. You know, like him reminiscing about his history and past. The events that led to him abandining his name, etc...

Exactly. I've been arguing this point to people until I was blue in the fingers! No matter what it looks like MOTU has a visual and naming language. there is a formula to it.

He's been LACKING so much right now in the mini-comics or any new media....

And so far Spector and SLL have been pushed... Sure spector's inclusion isn't a full comic yet but still only he and SLL have comic appearances Photog has nothing nor does Draego - figures that the fans accepted much more warmly than the other two...

That's funny. I just pulled him off the shelf today. He's exactly what I would've wanted as a kid. He's got a great look and had amazing wow factor. I'd have been nuts for him as a kid. Heck, I think he's damned cool now!
